Tobacco, sugar and cotton were sailed to Europe and exchanged for money The money was used to purchase more goods to be sailed to Africa. Profit was taken out at each point in the triangle by the most money was made at the third point when goods form the Americas came back to Europe. That said the slave trading kingdoms in Africa became quite prosperous too as did the American plantation owners.

Triangular trade worked like this. Ships loaded with merchant goods, like guns, rum, clothing etc. sailed to Africa from Europe. There the merchant goods were traded for slaves. The ship loaded with slaves in middle passage sailed for the Americas and traded the slaves for raw materials like cotton, tobacco, pineapples and coffee. The ships then sailed for Europe and the process was begun again.
